Denon DJ just announced a hefty update of its Engine app. Now at version 1.5, the DJ library management platform has had a huge visual overhaul, and adds support for the company’s just-launched MCX8000 controller, letting you use it as a standalone DJ system without the need for a computer.
Coloured waveforms are now displayed in the software, and you also get the ability to import hot cue points with tracks that come from your Serato DJ library. Owners of the Denon DJ SC2900 and SC3900 media players who have endured using an increasingly outdated previous version of the software should be pleased to see the upgrade, which Denon DJ has confirmed works with their devices.

The GMX DRIVE is a multi-format media controller for the DJ who desires the ability to playback all forms of digital music. DJ’s can playback tracks from a single USB drive, from either of the two slot-in CD drives, or from a laptop as a versatile MIDI software controller for Virtual DJ. Pioneer DDJ-1000 (Rekordbox DJ) The Pioneer DDJ-1000 is my pick for best DJ controller over $1000. It’s a great choice for Rekordbox users (plus there’s a Serato version), providing loads of visual feedback thanks to the high-res screens located in the middle of its large jog wheels.
As a library management app, Engine is currently more like Pioneer’s standard Rekordbox than a full-blown DJ app such as Traktor, Serato DJ, Virtual DJ, or – indeed – Rekordbox DJ. However, this new version is exciting because of how it powers the company’s promising new controller, the MCX8000, and we particularly like the versatility of being able to import tracks from your Serato DJ library onto Engine for laptop-free performances.

Time will tell if Engine catches on with users though, and we could only guess that future Denon DJ controllers and media players will work very closely with Engine, the way that Rekordbox and Rekordbox DJ do for Pioneer DJ gear. You wouldn’t bet against it becoming a full-blown DJ app like the others, either… would you?
• Engine 1.5 is now available. Visit the Denon DJ website for more details.
